Settings for a solidly grounded system:
I = 0.25 I
N
= 0.25 A
(The setting I = 0.1·I
N
is usually chosen for a impedance
grounded system.)

Since this value exceeds the permissible maximum peak value
of 2,000 V, a non-linear resistor must be connected across the
circulating current circuit to limit the voltage. Shorting contacts
may also be necessary.

The c.t’s must conform to British Standard 3938, Class X.
The c.t’s should also:
· have evenly distributed secondary windings on a toroidal
core (i.e. to minimise the secondary leakage flux)
· not have any winding correction.
